"I really cannot believe it is so many years since I left. Looking at all this for the last 3 hours it just seems like yesterday. Happy days, though we probably didn't appreciate just how happy at the time. In those days our whole lives revolved around school even for sport and leisure. I guess we were lucky to be so well provided for."
